I don't hang out there much, but noticed this status update from a few friends this evening:

xxxxx - believes that no one should die because they cannot afford health care, and nobody should go broke because they get sick. If you agree, please post this as your status for the rest of the day.

Thanks for the info, Linda.

I don't do politics there. At least not yet. Maybe when the next election rolls around I'll change my mind.

I keep it light as well, since the group is mostly made up of relatives on my spouse's side.
